i love this crazy, tragic, sometimes almost magic, awful beautiful life! [Apr. 19th, 2005|11:26 pm]

i'm back, my dear neglected livejournal... and now for an update on my life:


+ i got every single class i wanted for fall semester
+ i only am gonna have class on tuesdays and thursdays in the fall
+ i'm am taking: Survey of Musical Theatre
                         Musicals on Film
                         Patterns in Nature (an easy as hell online science class)
                         Sociological Research
                         History of Social Thought
                         Intro to Mass Communications
+ by some miracle, i am actually gonna graduate on time, even after the abomination that was my freshman year... May 2006 baby!

- i have a giant, huge essay exam tomorrow, and i'm gonna have to BS my way through it cause i haven't read any of the books... ahhhh!
+ Jenny and i decided that the weekend after my 21st birthday, we are gonna go to Vegas (and see Avenue Q!!!) Everyone's invited! Especially MTF's!
+ i will be 21 in 5 months

+ Mallory and I are going to Wango Tango together! MC/AC outing!

+ camp is really, really soon!

+ Jenny is working at day camp, so i get to see her alllll summer long! woo hoo!
- one of my good friends at work was hit by a car over spring break
- it was a hit and run, what an asshole, whoever you are
- he's been in a coma ever since (almost 6 weeks now) and hasn't really been making too much progress
- i've been having to work 20-30 hours a week because of it, and have had almost no social life... my sorority thinks i've fallen off the face of the earth
+ However, now i'm super rich! (well, by student standards...)
+ i'm getting my very own apartment next year, meaning everyone has gotta come visit!
- i might get kinda lonely in a big apartment all by myself... once again, visiting would be good

+ Constantine is still on American Idol
+ i'm coming home this weekend for passover
+ friday is Laura's and Alemy's birthday
sidenote: how weird is it that both of my twins have the same birthday??? whooooa!
+ Laura is having a bday party Friday night, and i finally get to meet her friends
+ i get to borrow my mom's beautiful car for the occasion
+ i'm getting my hair cut and dying it again on Saturday... darker this time i think
+ Saturday night i went to Sigma Pi with the girls (yep, i actually went to a frat party... shocking i know) and saw Pete, who i've had a crush on for over a year (since the day i met him, no joke), and he is sooo cute, but he has always had a girlfriend
+ he gave me his Lei (it was a luau party) and called me "good-lookin"
+ he found me at the party, and pretty much asked me to bring him to my next sorority date party, because i had asked him to one last semester but he couldn't go cause of said girlfriend :)
----- said date party is THIS FRIDAY, meaning i can't go due to my Jewishness
++++ last night after flirting with me over text messages for like 2 hours, he told me he wanted to come over and celebrate his singleness... and a good time was had by all...

if you want to see how cute he is... Click here! ) He's the one on the right...

so that's my life in a nutshell... you feel all caught up now, don't you?

life. is. good.

is anyone actually reads this entire thing, i will be super impressed! bonus points for you!

i love (read: find totally and completely, and ridiculously annoying) when random people on AOL see on my profile that i'm an aspiring casting director, and think there's actually a chance that IMing me to chat might actually help advance their career...

CousinJon (4:39:02 PM): how are you?
Theaterchic921 (4:39:11 PM): good... who's this?
CousinJon (4:39:21 PM): Jon
CousinJon (4:39:32 PM): what are you doing today?
Theaterchic921 (4:39:40 PM): do i know you?
CousinJon (4:39:50 PM): I don't know.
CousinJon (4:40:01 PM): maybe we should get to know eachother
Theaterchic921 (4:40:12 PM): i don;t talk to random people on the internet
CousinJon (4:40:34 PM): I'm not random though. I'm Jon

and then i didn't respond for a minute, and then came this:

CousinJon (4:41:47 PM): you wanna be a casting director?
Theaterchic921 (4:41:53 PM): yeah
CousinJon (4:42:25 PM): well I wanna be an actor like my third cousin Dennis Hopper, so it's a win win situation any way you look at it
CousinJon (4:45:02 PM): now can we talk?
Theaterchic921 (4:45:09 PM): i'm gonna go with... no
CousinJon (4:45:15 PM): why not?

and then i blocked him... god that's so annoying!

will you be my valentine? [Feb. 4th, 2005|03:48 am]
When the mellow moon begins to beam,
Ev'ry night I dream a little dream,
And of course Prince Charming is the theme,
The he for me.
Although I realize as well as you
It is seldom that a dream comes true,
To me it's clear
That he'll appear.

Some day he'll come along,
The man I love
And he'll be big and strong,
The man I love
And when he comes my way
I'll do my best to make him stay.

He'll look at me and smile
I'll understand ;
And in a little while,
He'll take my hand ;
And though it seems absurd,
I know we both won't say a word

Maybe I shall meet him Sunday
Maybe Monday, maybe not ;
Still I'm sure to meet him one day
Maybe Tuesday will be my good news day

He'll build a little home
Just meant for two,
From which I'll never roam,
Who would - would you ?

And so all else above
I'm waiting for the man I love.



hmmm... do you think i've realized that valentine's day is coming? and that, yet again, i am without a valentine? will you be my valentine?

[Current Mood | grumpy]
[Current Music |Joss Stone - Fell in Love with a Boy]

i seriously don't think i have ever liked someone this much before... my stomach gets butterflies everytime i see him... the other night after work, we just stayed there talking for almost an hour, about nothing really, just litening to music and enjoying each other's company...



so of course he's 25... of course he has a girlfriend... of course he's graduating in May... of course he's completely adorable... of course he's a musician... of course he reminds me of adam brody... of course he makes me laugh, and i make him laugh... of course he gets me... of course he's pretty much perfect... but am i really surprised anymore? i've never once liked a guy who was actually available; why start now?




i miss LA... A LOT. i always miss LA while i'm here, and miss AZ while i'm there... i wish i could come home on weekends, like Amy... i wish there was something more i could do for my friends when they were in bad moods, like stop by their house to say hi or bake them a cake, instead of just being a phone call... i miss Mallory my love like NO OTHER - who else calls me just because they miss me and felt like calling me? i heart my AC more than life... i miss Laura (it seems like we barely ever talk... i'm glad she's having such an amazing time at USC, but it seems like she's not gonna remember i exist til the summer - she's always so busy now)... i miss Coffee Bean... i miss Sydney... i miss Cheviot... i miss my house, and my parents... i'm so ready for summer, it's not even funny... and i have senioritis already, which can't be good, seeing as how senior year isn't for another 6 months... i'm over the college life, i think (i'm skipping the first sorority date party to go to a party with people from work - including Mike, so of course i'd rather be at my work party - and i'll be the youngest person there)... i'm ready to move on from education... to start living in the real world... to have a casting career... to become Allison Bader, C.S.A... none of that can even become a possibility until i'm done here... which means this will be the longest year and a half ever...


wow, do you think i'm a little emo today?

let's see, some good news... the guitar is coming along... i can almost play both Accidently in Love and GLORY!!! (almost = i can play them slowly) GLORY dude! how awesome is that?? other good news: hopefully, next year i will have my own apartment; i'll at least have my own room in a 2-bedroom depending on whether i can find someone to live with... but no more roommates! thank the lord...

wow, you would think with how much free time i've been having lately, seeing as how it's winter break for almost no one else besides me now, i would update this thing a little more! so, to sum up, new year's was fun... phantom with the gang and then party at sarah's... since then, i've pretty much just been hanging around the house, missing my az gammies like crazy! i've only seen Laura once this whole break, and this is so unacceptable, but at least this summer i get to see EVERY SINGLE DAY! mallory came over last weekend, and we watched stand-up comedy (sometimes y? sometimes???) and played guitar and saw In Good Company which was amazing! ::swoons over Topher:: went over to syd's just to say hi on saturday afternoon, and ended up staying for like an hour because we can talk forever about nothing... gotta love that... reminds me why i still consider her my best friend even though we've been through a lot this past year, most of which was my fault. i was supposed to see Emily on Sunday, but the damn pouring rain squashed that idea... grrrr... this week is yet more chilling out, until friday when i videotape sound of music auditions... yay! so much fun... oh yeah... the other bit of news:

I DYED MY HAIR!! it's really dark brown, and i love it... i will post pics once i get back to school, where my computer is... i guess that's it... my life won't be too exciting til i get back to school - where i actually HAVE a life. (and you should all come visit cause it would be really fun and make me really happy)

PS... Hey MTF's - Saturday is my last night here before i FINALLY go back to school, which means we should all do something, because i know you all are going to miss me terribly... Since Friday is out cause i'm the only one not going to soph's birthday thing (i guess she didn't know i'd be home - at least, i hope so), let's try for Saturday, k?

PS again - LJ comments are loved! :)

LIVEJOURNAL ACTIVITY TIME! Take the first sentence of your first post of each month and put it bellow to compile a "story" of your life since livejournal. ok, here goes...


OK, finally got myself a LiveJournal... wrapping up another boring weekend...
actually, a pretty boring week. Midterms have been kicking my ass, and i'm actually trying to be a good student this year. i cannot even begin to decribe how amazing this weekend was - it was the very definition of perfect! it's finally summer after the 3 weeks of absolute hell that were the end of my sophomore year... but from that hell came a 3.24 GPA! this week has been pretty fun... i've been at Willows everyday helping Liza; they're doing The Wizard of Oz. just once, i want someone to call ME and invite ME to go somewhere... if i want to see one of my friends, it is because i am the one who made the plans for us to hang out. ok, i am officially the worst live-journal person EVER, but here's my summer in a nutshell... Alemy's back from her wet hot French summer vacation!!! Coming home YET AGAIN this weekend - my uncle is getting married. and, you know, yay for him and all (and i LOVE his fiance to death - she's the best) but this will be the 4th time i've been home since the beginning of school - and we've only been in school for like 6 or 7 weeks!! I'm moving to Canada... who's with me? So today i was reading some article in Glamour about good makeup if you're in your 20's or something... Now, i was gonna just skip right over it and turn the page, when i realized...Since September 21st of this year, i have been officially IN MY 20'S!!!



wow that was actually pretty cool...
